Being the best version of ourselves should definitely be considered a priority. But moms often prioritize taking care of others first. Unfortunately, it's impossible to really take care of someone else if you aren't taking care of yourself first.
In recent years, the term "self-care" has had a lot of buzz around it. It means different things to different people, especially for different moms. Some moms find themselves able to be more relaxed with classical music and a bubble bath. Others are more of the glass of wine and binge watching type. Whatever you find recharges you, there's no harm in treating yourself to it.
That said, many moms worry about family finances when treating themselves to just about anything. Here is a list of affordable self-care items for moms, all under $25!
